A train crash in eastern Philadelphia injured 42 people this morning, a passenger train slammed into a train that was parked at the 69th Street station in Upper Darby

According to the Southeastern Philadelphia Transportation Authority (SEPTA), two Norristown high-speed line trains were involved in the incident. The circumstances surrounding the accident weren't immediately clear. Upper Darby Mayor Thomas Micozzie says of the 33 people on the train, four people, including the train's conductor, were rushed to the hospital.

Heather Redfern, a representative for the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority, said a rapid prepare kept running into another that was stationary and vacant at the 69th Street Terminal in the city’s Upper Darby suburb.
